Speaker connection
Here we connect the speakers in the room to this unit.
This section explains how to connect them using typical examples.
NOTE
0Disconnect this unit’s power plug from the power outlet before connecting the
speakers. Also, turn off the subwoofer.
0Connect so that the speaker cable core wires do not protrude from the speaker
terminal. The protection circuit may be activated if the core wires touch the rear
panel or if the + and - sides touch each other. “Protection circuit” (v p. 111)
0Never touch the speaker terminals while the power cord is connected. Doing so
could result in electric shock.
0Use speakers with an impedance of 4 – 16 Ω/ohms.
Connecting the speaker cables
Connect the speaker cable with a rubber tube (red) to the + speaker
terminal (red), and the other cable to the - speaker terminal (black).
1Peel off about 10 mm of sheathing from the tip of the
speaker cable, then twist the core wire tightly.
.
2Push the speaker terminal and insert the speaker cable
into the cable insertion slot.
.
3Release your finger from the speaker terminal to fix the
speaker cable.
